Decent numbers here, especially from the Cap U, as that’s a good indicator of activity, and is also used as a signal for employment and investment. The higher it goes, the more business factories are doing and the more they’ll look to expand.
Consumer goods led the way rising 1.0% after a 0.7% drop last month.
USDJPY not doing much but it ticked up to 110.81 from arounbd 110.70.
